When we were younger, pretty much the only thing that could end playtime was a lack of light — but that's not a problem anymore. Nerf Firevision ($10-$20) is a new lineup of gear that uses microprism technology to make things visible even at night. Whether you're playing football, basketball, or just bouncing a ball, all you need is a pair of Firevision glasses to see the action. The best part? No charging required.

We might remember the days of our RC vehicles getting stuck in the mud/snow/grass, but with toys like the Hot Wheels RC Terrain Twister Vehicle ($70) coming out, our kids probably won't. This bad boy sports two pontoons that feature corkscrew-shaped threads rather than wheels, letting it tackle dirt, grass, snow, asphalt — even water — without slowing down a bit.

Yup, it's exactly what it sounds like. The iLaunch Rocket Launcher ($80) is a Bluetooth-powered desk gadget that lets you shoot streamlined foam projectiles up to 25 away directly from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. It offers 270º of rotation, 40º of vertical flexibility, and a rechargeable lithium battery for foreign engagements, but unfortunately no cameras in the dart tips to watch the horror on your target's face when they realize they've been bombed.

There's a reason your dog wants to sleep on your uber comfortable Casper mattress with you, and that reason is not you. The Casper Dog Mattress gives man's best friend his very own Casper bed, made from a mixture of pressure-relieving memory foam and durable support foam, ensuring universal and long-lasting comfort. It's durable and includes a machine-washable cover. Your pup will love it, but has 100 nights to decide — just in case. Available in small, medium, and large.

Since you're in bed for close to 3000 hours per year, you should probably prioritize your sheets a bit more. Brooklinen can help. They're a startup that is focused on taking your bedding game to the next level. Woven from 100% long-staple cotton, Brooklinen sheets are crisp, cool, and get better with every use. Keep it classic with all-white sheets, or mix-and-match to customize things to look exactly the way you want. It's time to make your whole bed feel like the cool side of the pillow.

Most of the more elaborate Star Wars Lego kits we've seen have been dedicated to space ships/cruisers/battle stations, so it's refreshing to see an entire 2127 pieces dedicated to a single character. Building this Lego Star Wars R2D2 ($240) set will yield you a strikingly accurate rendition of everyone's favorite bleeping, blooping droid, standing over a foot tall and featuring a retractable third leg, front panels that open to reveal a universal computer interface arm and a circular saw, a rotating head, and a fact plaque complete with mini R2D2 figure.

Take your lunch break warfare to a whole new level with the Nerf N-Strike Elite Hail-Fire Blaster ($40). Packing eight quick reload clips that rest in a rotating ammo rack, this Elite Dart-firing monster holds up to 144 rounds, and offers the ability to hit targets up to 75 feet away, two tactical rails for accessorizing, and a special acceleration trigger that activates a motor for semi-automatic firing. Ready your cubicle accordingly.
